City oz

My thoughts are with this great man today. Sir Alex Ferguson's wife Cathy dies aged 84: Heartbroken Man Utd legend loses his 'tower of strength' who was by his side as he became one of football's greatest managers (and was the only one who gave HIM the hairdryer treatment)

Sadly, not in OZ Dave

Great memories of that era. Cashley, Sweeney, Drysdale, Gow, Collier, Merrick, Tainton, the big cheese, Tom the sticks Ritchie, Clive Whitehed, Gillies, we were getting 34,000 at some of these cup matches at Ashton Gate.

Conways goals at Rotherham this week gave me more goosebumps than whatever Mr. Becham ever did.

I'll take the six as the most likely.

Can't see the gas listed in these early rounds.

Why buy the album. Will anyone turn up TO WATCH THEM.

The Foxies have to be one of the favorites for promotion this season. This one will be great a test to see where we are actually at. I think we have played already some of the potential top teams that will finish in the top eight by end of season, and we are doing well. A win today will elevate us to a solid top six position and potentially put other top teams on notice that we are a threat to be considered. A draw most likely would be the result and acceptable. I sincerely hope those of you 3K plus travelling away today have a fantastic and enjoyable day. Keep safe and sing out load.COYRedssss

There probably still digging it up each week to see if he's still there. Keeps them in a job I suppose.

He did sniff a bit too much. Probably just a cold mate ? he is though very down to earth and very honest in what he says and how he comes across. Most probably will go done as one of our best managers in history at the end of this season. He still is not yet City history like Alan Dicks though in my books. But let us wait and see.

How can I be a part of this great organisation. I'm 61 but a bit far for me to attend each month.

On my last few visits back there was also a great Indian restaurant on the Gilda, from memory a pub just across the road as well.

I was 11 years old and with my dad in the open end. You also mention some great players in your post, and they are true City legends. A fantastic era in our great club that not only Cashleys goal but then players then of that time were and will all ways be true legends for those of us lucky to have watched them play. There will also be some great legends this season I hope as I have a good feeling it will be a good one.

Sure was. I remember both of us posting on this a few months back. It was a very cold night and Ray throughout the match constantly kicked the ball to the other end of the ground. I remember the goal well as I saw the ball bounce in front of their goalie and over his head. I will always remember this as one of the best memorable occasions at Ashton gate.

It will be a close one though. 3-2 win to us

Only Fools and Horses and some of Poldark

Going back some 40 years now but I remember watching Keynsham a few times. It was always easy for me as I just had to drive down the notorious hill at Stockwood lane. There was also a pub across the road from the ground. Wonder if it is still there?? Local football is great especially if you can enjoy a few pints with others.

I will have to try and search it over the weekend as I would love to give it a go. Quite a few of the wife's side lived in Hartcliffe over the years, and then a few down in Bedminster. Both great areas with a lot of history. Some negative history like most areas of Bristol but most very good. Any movies or documentaries of Bristol are always great to watch. Not been back for four years but will be back next year.

PARESTHESIA OMG you know have me confused. POSITIVE FEELINGS are something I used to get on a Sunday morning. TINGLING SENSATION wow used to get them as well.

Was the 002-pub built in Yate around that time. You could have watched it on a black and white Telly in the pub.

LJ will do well for one season at Fleetwood and then it will all come tumbling down. I remember LJ as a player with us and he was absolutely poor. 2006/7 even though he was part of the promotion team I felt he was lacking in team spirit and the willing to play. His managerial career also is very sketchy and inconsistent. I have never ranked him as a decent player, and he is also a poor manager. Not sure why we all keep talking about the bloke. Thank God he is not part of Bristol City anymore.

Be positive mate and look at the womans world cup football. Sport culture going forward will not just be the male sports.

Watching some of the Fox news in OZ today the Irish team should do very well.

Depends on your age and when you first attended Ashton gate as the 11 will change depending on what era you are from. At the end of the day, we will always have our favorite players and ideal team. We are lucky to be part of a great club on the up after many ups and downs over the fifty years I have been a city supporter.

Many years have gone by now, but Alan Dicks also reminds me of a was a solid manager with great ethics and a fantastic football brain with it. Pearson though is one of the greats and you never know by the end of this season he will have the status of some great success.
